Steps:

• When the potatoes are done, mix the flour, eggs, and about 1 teaspoon salt in a separate bowl. Add water until it is a thick dough.
• Spoon or cut noodles into soup--I tilt the bowl over the soup and use a butter knife to cut strips as it pours.
• After noodles are fluffy, pour in the cream. Heat and serve. This soup is even better the next day!
